Chicken Soup

tanya@skinnyandthecity.com — Fri, 09 Apr 2010 05:00:00 +0100
Many soup recipes call for homemade stock. Stock adds undeniable flavor, but it can also take hours to prepare. Instead, I rely on canned chicken broth for ease and convenience. The dill gives this soup a special flavor.

Ingredients

1 small onion, diced
4 carrots, peeled and diced
2 parsnips, peeled and diced
4 stalks celery, chopped
1 pound chicken tenders
1 tablespoon fresh dill chopped
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
4 cups chicken broth
2 [...]

The Skinny in the City office was a-buzz when Wonderful Pistachios called to invite Tanya to go to Russia and lecture about the health benefits of this super nut. I must have been in the right place, at the right time, or perhaps it was the pistachio colored top I was wearing that day, because Tanya asked me to be her companion on this exciting trip!

Tanya and I flew out of JFK Airport on Tuesday evening and arrived what felt like 100 hours later (actu [...]

Laurie, age 49 from Los Angeles, CA. She has a creative way to sneak our Obsession, Peeled Snacks, into her diet. We'll be waiting on that taste test or photos, at the very least!

I make a wickedly delicious sugar free, gluten free apple cobbler, and in place of the raisins I usually add for sweetness and texture, how cool would it be to use Peeled Snacks Cherry-go-round dried cherries instead? I'd love to try it and send you the results of my taste test, along with a photo [...]
